David White KickStarter 02/01/13

The DAVID WHITE JAZZ ORCHESTRA will record their second studio album featuring nine original compositions by David White.

Launched: Jan 1, 2013

Funding ends: Feb 5, 2013

***************************

When I said that 2013 my attention would turn to the Independent artist. One of the most talented composer/arrangers working the jazz orchestra side of the street is David White. Kick starter helps artists with fund raising when major or mid major labels are unable to do so..."show me the money!"

White is the poster boy for the type of artist I refer to, an artist that has more talent and creative energy then some of his contemporaries twenty years his senior. I have included the link to find out more about donating. Let us face facts, times are still hard and only seem to be getting worse. Don't confuse a record label with a bank and don't think NPR will coming riding in to save the day as they would have to borrow a horse to do it...Artists such as White that focus on original music and pushing the music forward need your help. This is money and time well spent. If I were not unemployed I would happily contribute but instead I am more than happy to hopefully drive some traffic his way. I may have reviewed a dozen big band/jazz orchestra ensembles over the last two years and thanks to White's original music it is easy to put him in the top two or three of artists that devote their time to a somewhat forgotten genre. I know David as a face book friend and I know how much he appreciates the help.

The perfect improvisational vocal storm! Tony Adamo’s hip spoken vocals cut a lyrical path of cool that lays down a vocal path of devastation few contemporaries can match!

July 16th thru the 18th, Adamo will be at Raw Recording Studio in upstate New York. Adamo and Clark will put the finishing touches on the NOLA recording date with the Headhunters. The legendary Mike Clark has put together a dream team of talent for Adamo’s recording session. Lenny White, Michael Wolff, Tim Ouimette and Richie Goods are enthusiastically behind a new music revolution!

A Tony Adamo Endorsement!

"Mike Clark/Legendary Drummer from Herbie Hancock & The Headhunters Says This About Tony Adamo."Tony Adamo is one of the more interesting artists that I have worked with in years. His deep blues, Oakland style funk and jazz roots are locked in at a deep emotional level. In the tradition of Kerouac, Mark Murphy and Gil Scott, Tony is today's vocal spoken word artist." Tony Adamo will be recording in New Orleans with the Headhunters in the next few months. Bill Summers and Mike Clark will produce Adamo's new music and CD.
